Ok, still, 'updevadm info -a' should not hang your computer. Unfortunately, the udev debug logs didn't make it into the dmesg output. But I've found a resource conflict with your i/o controller: --> [ 13.209692] ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000428-0x000000000000042F conflicts with OpRegion 0x000000000000042C-0x000000000000042D (\GP2C) (20211217/utaddress-204) [ 13.209701] ACPI: OSL: Resource conflict; ACPI support missing from driver? [ 13.211431] lpc_ich: Resource conflict(s) found affecting gpio_ich --< Such conflicting resources could probably cause a system hang when they are accessed by udevadm via sysfs.
